The Foundation of Software-Defined Access
Advanced persistent security threats. The exponential growth of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Mobility
everywhere. Cloud adoption. All of these require a network fabric that integrates advanced hardware and software
innovations to automate, secure, and simplify customer networks. The goal of this network fabric is to enable
customer revenue growth by accelerating the rollout of business services.
The Cisco Networking Cloud with Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) is the network fabric that powers
business. It is an open and extensible, software-driven architecture that accelerates and simplifies your enterprise
network operations. The programmable architecture frees your IT staff from time-consuming, repetitive network
configuration tasks so they can focus instead on innovation that positively transforms your business. SD-Access
enables policy-based automation from edge to cloud with foundational capabilities that include:
• Simplified device deployment
• Unified management of wired and wireless networks
• Network virtualization and segmentation
• Group-based policies
• Context-based analytics
Cloud Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) fabric capabilities are supported for Cisco Catalyst 9300/X models
being managed from the Meraki dashboard. Learn more about cloud management and cloud fabric here.
Cisco Catalyst, Cisco DNA, and Meraki software
Cisco Catalyst, Cisco DNA, and Meraki software subscriptions offer a valuable and flexible way to buy software

Power supplies
Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches support dual redundant power supplies. The switches ship with one power
supply by default, and the second power supply can be purchased when the switch is ordered or at a later time. If
only one power supply is installed, it should always be in power supply bay #1. The switches also ship with three
field-replaceable fans. Power supplies are common across the Catalyst 9300 Series.

Stacking
Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switch models are designed for stacking as a single virtual switch, enabling customers
to have a single management plane and control plane for up to 448 access ports.
Figure 5. Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series modular uplink models stack (C9300/C9300X SKUs) and fixed uplink models stack (C9300L SKUs).
Table 5 lists the supported stacking options.

Mixed stacking between Catalyst 9300X and Catalyst 9300 models are supported at StackWise-480 speeds.
Mixed stacking between Catalyst 9300 and Catalyst 9300X and Catalyst 9300 higher-scale models (C9300-
24UB, C9300-24UXB, C9300-48UB) is not supported. You cannot stack fixed uplink models (C9300L SKUs) with
modular uplink models (C9300 SKUs) or other Catalyst switches, such as the Cisco Catalyst 3850 and 3650 Series.
Any combination of Catalyst 9300 Series models can form a stack. Separately, any combination of Catalyst 9300L
models can form a stack.
Catalyst 9300 Series higher-scale SKUs (C9300-24UB, C9300-24UXB, C9300-48UB) need to be stacked with
other higher-scale models.
StackWise cables that are available to configure stacking with Catalyst 9300 Series modular uplink models
(C9300X and C9300 SKUs) come in lengths of 0.5m, 1m, and 3m.
The optional StackWise-320 kit for Catalyst 9300 Series fixed uplink models (C9300L and 9300LM SKUs) consists
of two stack adapters and a stacking cable. The default stacking cable is 0.5m, but options of 1m and 3m are also
available. Table 6 lists the stacking accessories.

SD-Access architecture
What if you could give time back to IT? Provide network access in minutes for any user or device to any application
– without compromise? SD-Access provides the industry’s first policy-based automation from network edge to
cloud. Your foundation for your digital network, Cisco SD-Access. Built on the principles of Cisco DNA, SD-Access
provides end-to-end segmentation to keep user, device, and application traffic separate without a redesign of the
network. It automates user access policy so organizations can make sure the right policies are set for any user or
device with any application across the network. This is accomplished with a single network fabric across LAN and
WLAN, which creates a consistent user experience anywhere without compromising on security.
There are many challenges today in managing the network to drive business outcomes. These limitations are due
to manual configuration and fragmented tool offerings. SD-Access provides:
• A transformational management solution that reduces operational expenses and enhances business agility
• Consistent management of wired and wireless network provisioning and policy
• Automated network segmentation and group-based policy
• Contextual insights for fast issue resolution and capacity planning
• Open and programmable interfaces for integration with third-party solutions
For an overview of the key use cases SD-Access addresses, refer to the SD-Access Solution Overview.

Platform benefits
Cisco IOS XE opens a completely new paradigm in network configuration, operation, and monitoring through
network automation. Cisco’s automation solution is open, standards-based, and extensible across the entire
lifecycle of a network device. The various automation mechanisms are outlined below.
• Automated device provisioning is the ability to automate the process of upgrading software images and
installing configuration files on Cisco Catalyst switches when they are being deployed in the network for the first
time. Cisco provides both turnkey solutions such as PnP and off-the-shelf tools such as zero-touch provisioning
(ZTP) and Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) that enable an effortless and automated deployment.
• API-driven configuration is available with modern network switches such as the Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series. It
supports a wide range of automation features and provides robust open APIs over NETCONF, RESTCONF, and
GNMI using YANG data models for external tools, both off-the-shelf and custom built, to automatically provision
network resources.
• Granular visibility enables model-driven telemetry to stream data from a switch to a destination. The data to be
streamed is identified through subscription to a data set in a YANG model. The subscribed data set is streamed
to the destination at specified intervals. Additionally, Cisco IOS XE enables the push model. It provides near-
real-time monitoring of the network, leading to quick detection and rectification of failures.
• Seamless software upgrades and patching supports OS resilience. Cisco IOS XE supports patching, which
provides fixes for critical bugs and security vulnerabilities between regular maintenance releases. This support
lets you add patches without having to wait for the next maintenance release.
Security
• Encrypted Traffic Analytics (ETA) is a unique capability for identifying malware in encrypted traffic coming from
the access layer. Since more and more traffic is becoming encrypted, the visibility this feature affords for threat
detection is critical for keeping your network secure at different layers.
• AES-256 MACsec encryption is the IEEE 802.1AE standard for authenticating and encrypting packets between
switches. The Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches support 256-bit and 128-bit AES, providing the most secure
link encryption.
• IPsec encryption delivers secure end-to-end encrypted traffic between sites and connectivity to the Cloud.
Catalyst 9300X models support line-rate IPsec up to 100 Gbps, delivering uncompromised secure connectivity.
• Trustworthy solutions built with Cisco Trust Anchor technology provide a highly secure foundation for Cisco
products. With the Catalyst 9300 Series, this technology enables hardware and software authenticity assurance
for supply chain trust and strong mitigation against man-in-the-middle attacks that compromise software and
firmware. Trust Anchor capabilities include:
- Image signing: Cryptographically signed images provide assurance that the firmware, BIOS, and other software
are authentic and unmodified. As the system boots, the system’s software signatures are checked for integrity.

- Secure Boot: Cisco Secure Boot technology anchors the boot sequence chain of trust to immutable hardware,
mitigating threats against a system’s foundational state and the software that is to be loaded, regardless of a
user’s privilege level. It provides layered protection against the persistence of illicitly modified firmware.
- Cisco Trust Anchor module: A tamper-resistant, strong cryptographic, single-chip solution provides
hardware authenticity assurance to uniquely identify the product so that its origin can be confirmed to Cisco.
This provides assurance that the product is genuine.
Cloud Security
• Cisco Umbrella® DNS integration:
Small to midsize networks reliant on managed service providers can now host the Cisco Umbrella agent directly
on their Catalyst 9300 Series Switches. This allows the business to easily customize its DNS filtering policies
granularly at the user or group level to prevent bring-your-own-device (BYOD) or IoT guest or corporate users
from accessing malicious or inappropriate websites, without having to rely on the service provider to push the
policies out. It also lets the business optimize use of bandwidth by allowing direct cloud access for trusted apps.
Requires a Cisco Catalyst and Cisco DNA Advantage license and Cisco Umbrella license per device.
• Cisco ASAc app hosting integration:
The integration of ASAc on Cisco Catalyst 9000 switches simplifies the network design by providing the
flexibility to plug small-form-factor firewalls into the network closer to the source. It also avoids complex tunnels
to centralized firewalls. This design lowers the total cost of ownership by reducing the number of physical
firewall appliances in the network.
The ASAc Firewall App hosting solution hosts a virtual firewall or ASAc on Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches.
All the physical firewalls next to a switch can be virtualized and deployed on the switch itself. As in a traditional
network, the SecOps team manages the ASAc firewalls deployed on the Catalyst switches, and the NetOps
team instantiates the application and performs lifecycle management using Cisco Catalyst Center. The SecOps
team controls policy management using Cisco Defense Orchestrator. Both the SecOps and NetOps teams can
seamlessly manage the network without any disruptions.
The container version of Cisco ASAc provides full firewall functionality to secure IT, OT, and IoT converged
networks. ASAc uses Layer 3 firewall policies and does a stateful inspection of the traffic.
The ASAc firewall runs on a 240-GB external SSD that is mounted on a Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switch.
Cisco Catalyst Center deploys the ASAc on these Catalyst switches, and ASAc is then onboarded to Cisco
Defense Orchestrator.

Managing licenses with Smart Accounts
Creating Smart Accounts by using the Cisco Smart Software Manager (SSM) enables you to manage your software
licenses from a centralized website. You can set up Cisco SSM to receive daily email alerts and to be notified of
expiring subscription licenses that you want to renew.
You must order a Cisco Catalyst or Cisco DNA subscription term license in order to purchase a switch with
Network Essentials or Network Advantage perpetual licenses. When the license term expires, you can either renew
the add-on license to continue using it or deactivate the add-on license and then reload the switch to continue
operating with the base license capabilities.
Both the base and add-on licenses are also available for a 90-day evaluation period. An evaluation license is
activated temporarily, without purchase. An expired evaluation license cannot be reactivated after reload.
It is not required to deploy Cisco Catalyst Center just to use Cisco Catalyst, Cisco DNA, or network packages.
Meraki dashboard is required to deploy a Catalyst 9300 switch with a Meraki software license.
Introduction to Smart Licensing
Cisco Smart Licensing is a flexible licensing model that provides you with an easier, faster, and more consistent
way to purchase and manage software across the Cisco portfolio and across your organization. And it’s secure –
you control what users can access. With Smart Licensing you get:
• Easy activation: Smart Licensing establishes a pool of software licenses that can be used across the entire
organization—no more product activation keys (PAKs).
• Unified management: My Cisco Entitlements provides a complete view into all of your Cisco products and
services in an easy-to-use portal, so you always know what you have and what you are using.
• License flexibility: Your software is not node-locked to your hardware, so you can easily use and transfer
licenses as needed.
To use Smart Licensing, you must first set up a Smart Account on Cisco Software Central (software.cisco.com).
For a more detailed overview of Cisco Licensing, go to cisco.com/go/licensingguide.

1 For all new orders, subscription licenses are mandatory and must be of the same tier as network licenses.
2 Portability within the same Catalyst 9000 series of hardware.
3 Available only with the Advantage tier.
There are three choices for software subscription: Cisco DNA, Cisco Catalyst, or Cisco Meraki. They provide:
• Flexible licensing models to smoothly distribute customers’ software spending over time.
• Investment protection for software purchases through software services–enabled license portability.
• Access to updates, upgrades, and new technology from Cisco through Cisco Software Support Service (SWSS).
• Base product-level support for hardware, software, and Cisco IOS (Catalyst software only).
• ISE licenses included in the Advantage tier to facilitate zero-trust network security* (Catalyst software only).
• Access to end-to-end network visibility with Cisco Spaces, service assurance through Cisco ThousandEyes
Network and Application Synthetics and app hosted ASAc firewall (with the Advantage license).
Manage your entire switching structure as a single, converged component. With one management system, on-
premises, virtual, or in the cloud, and one policy for wired and wireless networks, it offers an efficient way to
provide more secure access.

Product sustainability
Information about Cisco’s Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives and performance is provided in
Cisco’s CSR and sustainability reporting.
ENERGY STAR certification
Cisco is driving long-term value and market advantage by continuing to embed energy efficiency through hardware
and software and by providing customers visibility into their energy consumption to help them develop a baseline,
identify trends and anomalies, and take corrective actions.
With the ENERGY STAR certification of Catalyst 9300 Series models, Cisco is one of the first networking company
to have third party-approved campus switches. Ecolabel certifications like ENERGY STAR help customers identify
“environmentally preferable” products to help maximize energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and
lower energy costs.
ENERGY STAR certification reinforces Cisco’s ongoing commitment to deliver energy-efficient products including
top-rated power supplies, active power management and monitoring capabilities, and alignment to ISO 14000
Environmental Management systems standards — all designed with circularity principles in mind.
